About:
iRewardChart makes it easy to reward your children for good behavior and keep them motivated.
1. Type their name,
2. Select a few tasks from our list of suggestions, and
3. Reward their accomplishments with a single tap in the weekly chart
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
When stars have been earned, your child can pick from the default list of suggested rewards, or you can setup your own custom rewards especially tailored for each of your children, like "$2 Pocket Money" or "One Hour Of TV".
Children love to feel responsible, challenged and respected. But most children don't like being told what to do... iRewardChart also allows you to set up abstract goals like "Patience" and "Sharing With Others", so rewards teach the virtues you want your child to learn.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
iRewardChart includes a backup and sync service, so that parents and children can share their chart across the devices. Our sync services is FREE to use, and uses Dropbox, which is also free.
"iRewardChart" is a full featured free version with only the following limitations:
- It supports a maximum of one child.
- It supports a maximum of four tasks per week
Please consider buying the in-app Premium Feature that allows unlimited children and tasks if the basic version is helpful to you.

Keeps crashing and other issues
JadieG
Latest version keeps crashing. Issues with login and auth errors. Aside from latest version, I can't back date a reward entry. I can't give a reward to my son and allow points to go negative. Response to another reviewer, you just hold the star to subtract it if you accidentally add one. Many of the screens aren't real intuitive and you have to stumble through how to use them. It also feels like the person that coded the points portion is different than the person who recorded the rewards area. They are completely different and it is like learning two different apps.
It worked for us

Promising - Needs Improving

I just tried this app with my grandson. So far it's great, I like the customization of tasks and rewards. Would like to be able to create categories and have the ability to add negative points. A reward system should include both not just one. Also I accidently added points and found like I've read in other review impossible to remove. So I had to redeem the points I accidentally gave by creating one speciffically designed to remove those points. By doing so however, it did not remove them from the "Points Earned" it only reflected in the "Current Balance" If the ability to award negative points and remove accidentlly awarded points and have them reflect int eh "Points Earned" this app would recieve five stars from me
Good Idea!

Needs an update

I have been using this app for a few months and have really liked it but for the last few days it won't open and my kids are frustrated that they can't earn stars anymore. Please fix!
Absolutely love this app!

Part of our evening routine is going through our star charts and awarding stars for positive behavior. Generally, I thought it would be best for our seven-year-old. As it turns out, or 14 & 13-year-olds enjoy doing "star charts "as much is the seven-year-old. They all enjoy the Audible feedback. We've been using this app for years now, and it occupies the first screen on my phone. Absolutely love it, and will continue to love it for years to come.
Annoyed
CELmama
I just paid for the premium version so I could reward both my kids and it won't let me add a second child. When I tap "name" nothing happens. Super annoying. What a waste! Update- was able to add second child (she recall how) but how after 3 months Use still crashing and won't display both kids at the same time. I've contacted them but haven't heard back. Good concept but poor service and buggy.
Positive Response
Cash203
So I have three children from the ages of 10, 8, & 4 and the responded very positively to this app. It's great because it's instant gratification and also it's on my phone which is easy access. My oldest has autism and he really responded well to the task & rewards. So I would recommend this and make it interactive by having family discussions about task suggestions & reward suggestions. Great ? App!!!
